Collectible Guide

 

Before Playing: Be aware that this guide is set up for choosing all Brotherhood choices. You can do it opposite and still use this guide. The only thing it will effect are challenges.

 

This will show you where the Dossiers, Posters, X-Genes, and Challenges are. Though the guide is missing a few posters (propaganda), and 1 dossier, you will still get the achievements associated with collecting. You need less than what the game has.

 

Key

 

Dossiers - These are little projection like objects with character info. You pick them up by running over them. There are 24 of them but you only need 15.

Posters - These are on walls and are red. Move your character to them to destroy them, you do not have to press anything. They will rip apart on their own. There are 36 but you only need 25.

X-Genes - Bright objects found as a collectible. Very obvious when around one. Not really needed for any achievements except to collect a whole character set. You do not need to collect all 45 X-Genes and 19 suits.

Challenges - Can be obtained through characters in game or by going to certain areas.

Achievements - Will say when certain achievement is obtained, related to collectibles. Does not usually cover unmissable story related achievements.

After destroying the tower, there will be a cutscene. You will navigate ahead walking on the broken tower. You will see a prison cell holding some people on the right. Free them for an X-Gene. The poster is is on the wall to the left of the cell (if you're facing it).

Propaganda: 9

X-Gene awarded

 

Dossier (1/5): Mystique

 

You'll come to a mini scene and be attacked by many enemies. Jump down (or go down stairs) the the bottom floor. Look for the ticket booth in one of the corners.

 

X-Gene

 

There may be an X-Gene in the corner room where the dossier is.

 

Poster (1/9)

 

From the downstairs area with the ticket booth, go up the steps where there is the spinning X for your next place of interest to your right. Go left instead at the fork in the stairs and find the poster on the wall.

 

Poster (2/9)

 

You'll be running with a courier (his health bar will be displayed on bottom). After a while of protecting him, you'll go up a lot of stairs and be on the roofs. As you continue, look to your left before going under through the covered wooden bridge.

 

Poster (3/9 and 4/9)

 

You'll get to a marketplace and fight off enemies. Just ahead there are two posters on the walls of two buildings. One next to the Wan Hing sign, and the other has a sign with sparks coming down (a bit above it).

 

Dossier (2/5): Toad

 

In the same marketplace, right next to the poster with Wan Hing, you'll see the Dossier nearby.

 

Challenge 2/4: Toad

 

After you have gotten the package from the courier, you should see Toad in the area. Talk to him for the challenge. Run through the level destroying the firework stands.

 

X-Gene awarded

 

Poster 5/9

 

Once you go into the next area, your character will talk to themselves and you will be limited to walking. To the left you should see an alley with a poster on the wall and an X-Gene if you continue around the corner (possible location).

 

Dossier (3/5): Externals

 

Continue through the alley and when you come out of it, you'll see the Dossier by the roadblocks.

 

Game Hint: To get out of this area, go on the bridge and get close to the closed gate. It will automatically open for you. I do not know why they decide to have all these locked gates, and not tell you that one will open. It took me a while to figure this out, as I thought it was a dead end.

 

X-Gene

 

When you cross the bridge towards The Rogue Hand (where you meet Gambit), to your right you will see the X-Gene in a booth.

 

Poster 6/9

You will get to a point where you must climb up a building or go up stairs to get on top of a building. There is a helicopter on top. Before going up, go around the building and you'll find a challenge. You can either go around and jump over the concrete blocks, or go through an alley.

 

X-Gene awarded

After climbing up the building, then climbing up once more, you'll go down a wooden ramp. Follow the path and you'll see two enemies that shoot at you. The poster is on your right, in front of them.

 

Dossier (5/5): Iceman

 

After climbing up the first building, fighting off the group on the roof, turn right and climb to the top of the next building. From there, turn left and follow the wood stairs up and then up the wood ramp. The dossier is at the top of the ramp by two purifiers on top of a group of barrels.

 

X-Gene

 

When you are down inside of the building, you will fight many enemies. Afterwards, you will see the spinning X indicator telling you to go there. To the right is a control panel. To the right of that, you'll see a path which leads to an X-Gene.

Poster 2/6

 

The White Queen will talk to you mentally. You'll then find yourself in a room with 3 mechs. Go to where the small stairs on next to them and break the fenced gate. To your left is the poster.

 

X-Gene

 

Opposite of the poster when you turn around, is the gene.

 

Dossier (2/3): Surge

 

While fighting your first Stalker enemy (mech with guns), you'll find this to the right part of the area on a set of barrels.

After killing the stalker, it will leave behind a gene.

 

Challenge 3/3: Surge

Yeah, I did miss a few things. Luckily they won't interupt any achievements but it'd still be cool for me to at least put all dossiers.

Yep everyone, know that I'm missing them :) I will eventually add them but right now I have moved on to Rage collectible guide complete with pictures. I will come back to this, as it is more of a dead game. Plus you don't need to get those collectibles for the achievements. They are just nice to have!

The last (or second, technically) poster in mission 4 next to the X-Gene after you see the prisoner (Colossus) being beaten. you have to jump to get it.

 

As far as I can remember the last poster in Mission 3 is after you've picked up poster 8/9 and killed the two shooters, turn around and go back up the ramp. follow this around and it'll lead into a small building with some stairs, I think it's around there, either way, follow this to the top and there's another X-Gene.

Forgot to write mission 4, cos I'm cool like that :(

It looks like Dossier 5/5 was omitted from Mission 3. It happens after challenge 4/4.

 

Dossier (5/5): Nightcrawler

 

After climbing up the first building, fighting off the group on the roof, turn right and climb to the top of the next building. From there, turn left and follow the wood stairs up and then up the wood ramp. The dossier is at the top of the ramp by two purifiers on top of a group of barrels.
